Listed by Larry Ginsburg• BHHS Regency Real Estate
1st Ward, located between the Lehigh River and Downtown Allentown, is a historic and industrial Allentown neighborhood with brick rowhouses and repurposed warehouse blocks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Hamilton Street corridor near the ArtsWalk, where galleries, small studios, and performance-night foot traffic set the tempo. The Allentown Art Museum, Miller Symphony Hall, and the Baum School of Art act as cultural anchors with a steady calendar. Side streets mix late-19th-century facades with newer infill, keeping the streetscape textured. Pocket parks and the riverfront trail system shape daily routines on foot or bike. Cafes and independent eateries cluster near the arts district, giving the area a lived-in, after-work feel.
